[DMH]

How come this board still not out in the market yet? Will it be or it has already abandon?

If you want you can order one from Portugal

ASUS P5E64 WS Evolution build 0501

This one improves much nVidia 9800GX2 VGA performance as well as some others GPUs. (3D01 especially )

Thanks pmp much appreciated. This time it is the right one based on the file name at least? Do you have more info/changelog please?

[jabski]

thanks J

Don't know if those are posted already, but here it goes:

Some voltage measurement points for the P5E64 WS Evolution:


p.s. My board overvolts the RAM quite a lot ( 1.60V @ BIOS results in 1.71 or 1.73 [ gotta check my notes ] in reality )

[BenchZowner]

Updated pic with the following voltages measurement points:
CPU Voltage ( Vcore )
RAM Voltage ( Vddr )
NorthBridge Voltage ( Vnb )
SouthBridge SATA/PCI-E 1.5V Voltage ( Vsb_pcie )
FSB Termination Voltage ( Vfsb ) [ aka VTT Voltage ]
DDR3 RAM Termination Voltage ( DDRvtt ) [ Vddr_vtt ]
CPU PLL Voltage ( Vpll )

I still have a hard time getting stable around FSB 445-450 with my setup.
It turns out that my systems crashes (show werid graphics/colors) within minutes in games (COD4, Crysis, Oblivion) when running 445x9 (RAM at 1780) even though it is Prime blend stable and Memtest stable for around 18 h. However running 421x9.5 (also 4 GHz) is Prime blend stabe for 24 h and runs games perfect. I wonder whether it is my CPU or the motherboard/BIOS that is holding me back? I don't think it is my memory since they run error free Memtest and It does not help to loosen timings or use 2N. I have been tweaking for months but can't get it stable at FSB 445+

Stable setting (24 h+ Prime Blend):

excellent review, awesome board...it has all the ports

[Baron_Greenback]

Does anybody have a bios for this board that supports E8600 cpu ?

Currently running 0501 but does not support this cpu correctly..

Cheers,

Rich.

Have you tried 0401?

[Baron_Greenback]

Yeah, i've tried em all Just flashed back to 0401 just to check, but still no go

[giraffen]

I dont no if 0504 support e8600, but here it is http://www.benchzone.com/Downloads/B...5E64WS0504.rar
